Weight Loss Wednesday Linky – Week 43 #WeightLossWednesday

Bravo to all those who are sticking on in there! When you document the year week by week it is the most random thing… for one, you find yourself thinking ‘is it really time to write WLW again?’ as the time really does fly by. Though on the other hand… due to the journey being weight loss related, it also seems to drag – is anyone else with me there in that pondering moment?

Well… I gave up! After all the talk of moderation last week, I gave up on Friday. However for good reason – I think almost hitting the deck several times is good enough reason!

I had all the grand plans of what days to decorate my living room – then everything arrived at the same time later than expected – so in order to enjoy my child free week, I attempted to do everything at once – on top of a day out where I had forgotten to take a New You Plan bar with me… dizziness and exhaustion mixed together are not a nice combination… so I ate… and then carried on painting till 11pm.

You know it! 😉

In my mind the effort I was putting into painting would outweigh any calories I ate. Exercise doesn’t have to be in the form of a workout at the gym you know! 😉

Since then I have been constantly in and out, which is the normal pattern when Liv isn’t here. I like to keep busy(ish) and see people otherwise I go stir crazy.

I’m not constantly eating which is what I would have done last year, I am too busy and preoccupied and it’s easy just to eat if I feel hungry as opposed to set meals. I’m still 5lbs away from target, there is just something about it that doesn’t bother me. I’ve realised I am much more confident in myself (watch out world!) and the fact I am pansying about over the last 5lbs doesn’t concern me… if I knew those lbs would come directly off my rear end, I’d be on it. Though I am happy at the moment… isn’t that the ultimate goal?!

Do you have any tips on how to maintain weight loss?

I think a specific target weight is a bit random to be honest – it’s like painting a great masterpiece. How do you know when you’ve finished? When is the ultimate time to stop, when it looks great and adding any more brushstrokes might wreck it? You’re looking amazing and if you feel confident in your own skin then I’d say you’ve already hit your target – just enjoy it and feel immensely proud of yourself ! xxx

Indeed – it was a goal that had me set up at the start of the year when I needed something to aim for and to keep me going along with the challenge. I’ve certainly hit a target… still a few more to go though. Thank you for linking up love – hope you are having a fab week and enjoyed your birthday!xxx

Doesn’t sound good the whole hitting the deck thing!! I do think with target there is always room for negotiation! If you are happy now, which is the most important thing, who cares about that last 5lb!

Not at all, I felt absolutely shocking – I was trying to do everything at once with zero energy. Even I am not immune! I am just enjoying myself and going with the flow – I will get there, but for now I am happy! Hope you are having a fab week love – thank you for linking up! 🙂 xx
